Chapter 35 - Terraform Cloud - CLI Driven Workflow

Using Terraform Cloud in the CLI

You can use Terraform Cloud in the CLI, using the features of Terraform Cloud's backend and workspaces.

# Terraform Block
terraform {
  required_version = ">= 1.0.0"
  required_providers {
    azurerm = {
      source  = "hashicorp/azurerm"
      version = ">= 2.0"
    }
  }
  # Update Terraform Cloud Backend Block Information below
  backend "remote" {
    organization = "dupo-internal"
    workspaces {
      name = "dupos-terraform"
    }
  }
}

# Provider Block
provider "azurerm" {
  features {}
}

May need a token during this process if not logged into Terraform Cloud.
